“Many a road, you know”

I would like to share this song from the movie ‘Away We Go’ called ‘All of My Days’. It’s the opening song and really sets the tone of the show. One line in the song (“many a road, you know”) also reminds me of a SMS that my good friend sent me some time ago after many unexpected things happened in both our lives. The SMS read: “Irwin dear, the world is so huge. There are so many possibilities.” I don’t know where is she now, or what she is doing, but there are times I miss her so much that it aches.

Well I have been searching all of my days
All of my days
Many a road, you know
I’ve been walking on
All of my days
And I’ve been trying to find
What’s been in my mind
As the days keep turning into night

Well I have been quietly standing in the shade
All of my days
Watch the sky breaking on the promise that we made
All of this rain
And I’ve been trying to find
What’s been in my mind
As the days keep turning into night

Well many a night I found myself with no friends standing near
All of my days
I cried aloud
I shook my hands
What am I doing here
All of these days
For I look around me
And my eyes confound me
And it’s just too bright
As the days keep turning into night

Now I see clearly
It’s you I’m looking for
All of my days
Soon I’ll smile
I know I’ll feel this loneliness no more
All of my days
For I look around me
And it seems He found me
And it’s coming into sight
As the days keep turning into night
As the days keep turning into night
And even breathing feels all right
Yes, even breathing feels all right
Now even breathing feels all right
It’s even breathing
Feels all right
